It is difficult for the farmer's sister

Chapter 164 Rations (May [-])
Meng Mingzhou shook his head honestly, "I don't know, please tell Grandpa Wang."

"There are 55 households in our village. In the past, each family was given at least one thousand eight hundred catties. My family has no more and no less. Now they still have more than 500 catties. Other families have at least three or four hundred catties. Seven or eight hundred catties more."

Meng Mingzhou nodded, calculated in his heart, and replied after a while: "Well, I probably did the calculation. The average of the whole village is 55 catties, so [-] households would be [-] catties. Well, that's not too much. We can have it all."

Wang Han looked at Meng Mingzhou calmly.

As for Su Chendong and the others, their eyes widened. He always thought that Su Rui only wanted a few hundred catties.

Su Chenrui saw that Meng Mingzhou had made such a firm decision to take them all, so he hurriedly dragged him from under the table. He was worried that his eldest sister would find out after returning, what if he got angry with Meng Mingzhou?What if we drive them away?
Sensing the tension from the people around him, Meng Mingzhou turned his head to comfort him with a smile, telling him to rest assured.

He was so generous to ask for everything, not on his own initiative, but because Su Rui held him aside before departure and told him to ask for as much as he had, so he didn't have to worry about money.

Su Chenrui still trusts Meng Mingzhou very much, seeing that his expression is normal, he knows his constitution of freedom, so he doesn't care about it.

Meng Mingzhou smiled and glanced at the stunned three brothers of the Wang family, then turned to Wang Hanping, "Grandpa Wang, how are you thinking?"

"I can sell all of my family's to you, but for the whole village, I have to discuss with the patriarch."

Meng Mingzhou nodded, "We should discuss it."

He is very confident that Wangjia Village will definitely sell all the chestnuts to him. One is because Wangjia Village is remote and it takes a day and a half to go to the county to sell chestnuts, and the other is because it is poor.

Wang Hanping got up: "It's getting late today, you guys rest first, I'll talk to the patriarch."

Seeing Wang Hanping get up, Meng Mingzhou and his party hurriedly got up too.

"Then please trouble Grandpa Wang."

Wang Hanping waved his hand, told his wife to arrange accommodation for them, and called his three sons to go to the patriarch's house together.

The family has an earth embryo house built last year for the grandson's blind date, but it is still new and has never been lived in.So naturally there is no bedding inside, Wang Li walked to the door of Wang Yonghe's room and shouted softly.

"Boss daughter-in-law, boss daughter-in-law, come out and lay a bedding for the new house."

Mrs. Xu went out of the room and hurriedly answered, "Good mother, I'll go right away."

"Second daughter-in-law, you go..."

When Meng Mingzhou saw that Mrs. Wang and Li had to arrange for someone to clean up, they hurried forward and said, "Grandma Wang, don't bother, just take a nap."

Mrs. Wang Li waved her hand, "I don't think you will be able to finish your work tomorrow. Clean up and you will live comfortably."

Meng Mingzhou smiled shyly at her, "Then I will thank you for your hard work."

"Hey, what are you doing so politely?"

On the way to the patriarch's house, Wang Yongan asked uncertainly, "Father, do you really believe it?"

Wang Yongan nodded.

Anyway, he has lived for decades, and he is still very accurate in judging people. He can feel that Meng Mingzhou is not joking with him, but really wants it. God knows how excited he was when he heard that he wanted all the chestnuts just now?

If you ask "Wangjia Village" outside of Wangjiacun, no one knows about it, but if you just say "Lizicun", everyone knows, everyone knows, it's a bit exaggerated, but it's true for tens of miles around.

Why is it called Chestnut Village?Because in their Wangjia Village, except for chestnuts, other animals and plants do not grow well, and they have to live on chestnuts all year round, and good people are unwilling to marry their daughters, so there are the most bachelors in their Wangjia Village.

Wang Yongan hesitated for a while, and then asked, "Even if it is true, does he really have so much money? Even if the chestnuts are worthless, they must have two or three Wen a catty, right? If it is [-] catties of chestnuts, it also needs money." Hundreds of taels of silver, right? How can a boy have so much silver?"

As soon as Wang Yongli heard this, he quickly glanced at Wang Hanping and shouted in a low voice.

"father!"

Wang Yonghe's originally excited heart felt as if a basin of ice water had been poured from head to toe, cooling him down.

Wang Hanping frowned and looked at the three sons, "Look at your prospects, even if you don't trust outsiders, you should trust your own sister, right? Do you think Meizi will introduce a liar home? Let Chen Dong and Chen Wen accompany her ?"

Wang Yonghe and Wang Yongli didn't have a heart, and when they heard what their father said, their hearts were immediately put back.

And even though Wang Yong'an didn't question him under Wang Hanping's persuasion, he was still beating drums in his heart.

Several people came to the patriarch's house and told him about Meng Mingzhou's desire to buy chestnuts.

The royal patriarch was excited, "Okay, okay, I agree."

The patriarch's daughter-in-law slapped him on the arm, "What's the use of your agreement? It's too late today, and tomorrow morning you gather the clansmen and have a meeting together."

When Wang Hanping and his three sons saw the patriarch's daughter-in-law slapping the patriarch's arm, their eyes jumped suddenly, and then they turned their heads to look aside as if they hadn't seen it.

The patriarch immediately lowered his head and said to the patriarch's wife in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, please show me some face, and let me not be so embarrassing in front of Uncle Han Ping."

The patriarch's daughter-in-law nodded perfunctorily.

Early the next morning, the patriarch called the heads of each family to briefly talk about it. Basically, most of the families were willing to sell all of them for money, while a few didn't want to sell all of them, and the rest wanted to go to the grain store to exchange for miscellaneous grains.

The patriarch called several senior clan elders and went to Wang Hanping's house together.

Su Rui knew that several people from Meng Mingzhou came to Wangjiacun, and they would definitely not be able to return that day, and the conditions in Wangjiacun were not very good, so when Meng Mingzhou came, she prepared a dozen catties of corn and asked him to bring them as rations. But when Su Chenrui came here because he was in a hurry, he forgot to prepare it. Fortunately, Su Chenrui was used to carrying money with him, so he counted out fifty coins.

"Grandpa Wang, I was in a hurry to go out and forgot to bring my rations. This will be my ration money."

Seeing this, Su Chenyuan and Su Qiang also quickly took out their purses, each of them took out fifty Wen, and put them together with Su Chenrui's on the coffee table beside Wang Hanping.

Seeing this, Wang Hanping smoked without hesitation, and quickly picked up the money and stuffed it back into their arms.

"You guys call me grandpa anyway, are you going to slap me in the face?"

Holding the money, Su Chenrui looked at the long-faced Wang Hanping, and at the same time turned to Meng Mingzhou at a loss.

Seeing this, Meng Mingzhou smiled and said, "Grandpa Wang, we didn't mean to slap you in the face. It was the family members who told us that we were only allowed to come out with Brother Chen Dong if we had to bring our own rations. Otherwise, we would not be allowed to go out."
